The Provincial Director of Education, Elena Fernández Treviño, has come to terms with the “absolutely indecent” statements made by the popular senator Isabel Moreno Mohamed, after the leader of the PP attacked a school activity organized by the IES ‘Enrique Nieto’ on the occasion of 8M.
The head of the Provincial Directorate recalled that it was an activity organized by an Equality Officer who, in addition, works with a co-education team in which the Autonomous City of Melilla also collaborates, through the State Pact against Gender Violence.
“We are working on co-education activities, as all the primary and secondary schools in the city do,” he said, and he has made it clear that the Ministry of Education “will continue to work on issues of equality and issues of prevention of gender violence, no matter who it is.”
At this point, Fernández Treviño pointed out that on issues such as equality and the fight against violence against women “we should have all the political parties”, especially with the figures that there are, given that there are already 1,300 women killed since 2003, since there are official figures, and 63 minors are killed by vicarious violence. “Today we have had a minute’s silence for the last victim, a girl, a child under five years old,” he said.
Therefore, the Provincial Director of Education has recognized that it seems “absolutely frivolous” that educational activities are used within an educational center, “putting in solfa both the teaching work and the work of the management teams and those responsible for equality, also putting in focus a center that works for and for coeducation.”
Focusing on the activity carried out from the institute, Fernández Treviño recalled that the people invited to participate did so as institutional representatives and for their work, as is the case of Sabrina Moh, first Delegate of the Government, or Laura Santa Pau, for her work as prosecutor of gender violence. “We were invited and attended the event to work for and for equality and in the prevention of gender violence,” she said.
